Battery-Powered Bucket-Top Sprayer

Designed to fit atop a 5-gallon bucket or 55-gallon drum (depending on model), this Battery-Powered Bucket-Top Sprayer is designed to dispense liquids in about half the time as a hand-pumped sprayer. Running off a 12- or an 18-volt Dewalt cordless-tool battery, the unit will reportedly operate for 2 or 4 hours on a single charge (depending on the liquid’s viscosity). Among the sprayer’s agricultural applications are fertilizing, pest control, weed control, sanitizing, and livestock cleaning/cooling. All models come with battery receptacle, 2-foot spray wand, 4 feet of hose, 5-gallon-bucket inlet tube assembly, and various nozzles. Options available include: battery, charger kit, nozzle kit, dripless shut-off handle, extension wands, extra hose, inlet tube assembly for a 55-gallon drum, and three-wheeled bucket or drum carts.

Cost: Starting at $250 (Contact supplier for current pricing)
